Does anyone know if there are any PS4 controller bargains going, or even if they are in stock anywhere? everywhere they seem to be 59.99 but it seems like there is no stock anywhere?

The price rarely drops on these but argos have them in stock in some stores:

Any idea how big the complete install is? At the stage where I'm deleting stuff now.

Definately a bargain for those who didn't pick it up yet. I still play the odd game of it.

That said this is such a strange game somewhere between arcade and sim.

It's like it didn't know what it wanted to be which just taints it somewhat for me.

It's beautiful and plays well for the most part but just an odd in between style.

Hard to explain tbh

It's made by many of the team behind the still brilliant Metropolis Street Racer on the Dreamcast and the Xbox PGR titles, sharing their style of accessible racing that isn't always about the line but doesn't give the option of throwing bananas out the back either.

Yeah I know the guys behind it alright.

I know you're saying its accessible but in some respects a Forza or Gran Turismo imo is more accessible.

The cornering in Drive Club can be incredibly unforgiving in particular at higher speeds.

As I said though I still enjoy the odd game of it and tbh if I had more time I'd love to give it the time it deserves to get better at it.

I'd also love to play it with a steering wheel but my old Logitech wheel is not compatible. I'll get a converter at some point. Can't justify a new wheel.

Same, have a G25 and don't really want to get the G29. Although Idid get the Xbox One version of the wheel, the G920.

Really wish someone would make legacy controller drivers for the wheels like what has happened for the ps3 arcade sticks.

At full price the Thrustmaster wheels are better than the G29, but the G29 is really reduced on Amazon now.

There was some adapters but they added a lot of latency.

I could be completely wrong but I think there was talk on the fighting forum that some of the lads were using is it "brooks" converters for their fightsticks?

I can't imagine they'd be too happy with latency issues.

I honestly haven't looked into it as my wheel is in the attic due to space and time etc currently but would be interested for future releases like Gran Turismo etc..

I bought Driveclub and the season pass and I'm a bit dissappointed about the way it works to be honest.
The driveclub tour and startline are fine but everything else has a shopping cart icon next to it and it asks you to go to the playstation store to buy.
I was expecting everything to be unlocked automatically but for everything from the season pass to unlock you have to go to the Playstation store and buy it for free for each individual event.
Am I doing something wrong here?
Also Finish Line and No Limits are not covered by the Season pass which I was suprised by.
I thought the Season pass covered everything.
There is a massive amount of events and races covered by the pass just not those 2.
It's still good value anyway.

Maybe not the biggest bargain but I wanted it and wasn't willing to pay the initial full price so was happy with this price.

€24 for borderlands the handsome collection for ps4 and Xbox one in Argos currently.

https://m.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?searchTerms=Borderlands

It's on psn as well for €25 I think if you're not one for physical copies.

That's really odd. I looked at it this morning and it showed €23.99 which was the price I paid for it a few days ago. I meant to post the bargain alert then but forgot. Sorry if it's gone now.

Is the psn one still on? It was €25 there a few days ago. My mate bought it there as he prefers digital.

Yeah I was watching it on argos myself for weeks but no stock in any of the local stores. It went up again today and that price is valid until tomorrow so probably take another price drop on saturday.
The one on PSN is gone as it was part of the easter sale.

sweetie

Lots of Dlc for sale including Dark Souls Artoria for 3.89

That's crap. That said I'd say you're right I can't see it staying at the €40 mark.

I think I saw it in Smyths a few months back for around €25 as well so I'd say that's the price you'll see it dipping too every now and then.

Hope you get sorted.

Smyths sold them off for €15 at Christmas.

Zavvi are selling it for €30 if you don't mind waiting a bit, their shipping times are not the best.

Yeah I knew I'd seen it cheap in Smyths. Don't know why I didn't pick it up at €15. That's stupidly cheap.

I'm happy enough with €25. I'll definately get 25 hours or more out of it.

My rule to myself for justifying a game purchase these days is 1hour played per euro spent. It's good value then.

Too many games bought over the years and left sitting.
